Answer

Eat less move more. You're young, so losing is easier now that any other time. No more snacks. Smaller meal portions. Nutrient dense foods. If your school has a gym you can use, weights every other day, cardio when you're not doing weights, if you can't access a gym, cardio every day. At least 1/2 an hour a day, a whole one if you can. Strenuous exercise, if you're not sweating, it's not enough. No more soda or juice, a half gallon to a gallon of water a day.

Answer

I put 4 main tips below but basically you want to focus on improving your daily habits. Start with your eating habits, then incorporate more when you’re ready. It’s not a race. You didn’t get to your current size overnight and you won’t get to your goal overnight. It takes time, consistency, patience and forgiveness. 
Tip#1 Get your nutrition in check first. Don’t restrict yourself to some super low calorie or carb diet. When you keep yourself in a deficit for an extended amounts of time, your body will adapt and it eventually lands up doing more harm than good. Just focus on eating REAL foods. Things without a label. Things that grow, walk or swim on the earth. Choose organic produce- at least for the dirty dozen. Pastured raised eggs-if you enjoy eating eggs. Grass fed meat- used as a condiment. Wild caught fish- low in mercury. The key is to build your meals around the veggies (not the meat), choosing things you personally enjoy, and then chew the meal slowly. Ditch anything processed and keep your sugars to a minimum. Drink water to stay hydrated.
Tip#2 Start walking. Start with just ten minutes if you have to. Add another ten minutes the next week. Just build up at a pace you can maintain. Then incorporate some cardio. Cardio will be your friend but don’t rely on it more than nutrition. Use it as additional fat burn support. You want to continuously change up your cardio to keep your body guessing and pulling energy from every fat storage deposit it has. This is more important when you get down to the more stubborn areas but you get the idea.
Tip#3 Weight train when you’re ready. Focus on multi-joint movements. There’s thousands of variations but the basic movements are chest presses, shoulder presses, rows and pull-downs for upper body then squats, lunges, deadlifts and step-ups for lower body. Everything can be done at home with a resistance band, bodyweight, maybe a dumbbell and a little creativity. There’s plenty of workouts you can follow on YouTube if the creativity doesn’t come at first. There’s also whole exercise directory on ExRx.net that can be super helpful when you’re looking to target a particular muscle and just can’t think of the best movement for it. Hip thrusts are best for the booty if you’re concerned with that. If you need to be easy on joints, do the exercises in water to alleviate some pressure. 
Tip#4 Recognize and accept that motivation will always fluctuate and you will have setbacks. Create a system to keep yourself disciplined and accountable in these moments. Always, always remember that long term results come from long term habits. So when you feel like you want to give up, remind yourself that it’s not a temporary thing you’re suffering through, it’s your life, your lifestyle, you have the power of creating it to be however you want it be, and the only temporary thing is your excuses.

try to eat in the earlier hours of the day rather than later. when my mom was trying to lose weight she would eat a big breakfast a healthy lunch and no dinner and she lost the weight easy and all she did was walk for an hour every day. but if you wanna focus on your stomach i would walk an hour for cardio come back do home workouts from youtube. i started doing ab butt leg and back workouts with my sister and law and friend everyday we motivate eachother maybe try doing it with a friend or family member like mom dad brother or sister whoever ☺ also water is essential try to drink at least 64oz of water thats about 4 full 16oz water bottles. if you need motivation or anything comment and ill give you my email!

Answer

diet is a huge part of losing weight ! try cutting out sugary foods and drinks and replacing them w water and healthier snacks . eat lean meats (fish , chicken , turkey) instead of red meat like burgers and steak . don’t starve yourself !! that isn’t the way to go . working out wise , start off slow and work your way up . i usually start off w running half a mile at 3.5-4.5 (depending on how i’m doing that day) , doing some crutches and ab work , and then finishing out w my legs . the next day , i’ll try to focus on the arms . you will not lose weight overnight ! give your body some time to adjust to your new lifestyle . you got this girly ! be patient w yourself and take it one step at a time ! you’ll look great just in time for summer :)

Answer

Not all bodies will respond to the same things, the same way! Belly fat is usually related to sugar intake. DON’T start any kind of diet or exercise routine without first speaking to your own doctor and/or nutritionist. When it comes to your fitness, consult with a personal trainer or coach if you do any sports. They can definitely help find what’s right for your body. It is too easy to become obsessed and damage your health permanently. I am twice your age and my digestive system has never recovered, and right now I’m dealing with the reproductive fall out. Don’t get hung up on what you think your body should look like, just focus on healthy for life!
